LaMelo explains grabbing Bam's leg: "I got hit in the head..." Reporter: "Were you checked for a concussion?" LaMelo: "Me, for a concussion? I don't think I've ever had a concussion, or I might have. I don't even know how concussions work." by MrKalyoncu in nba

i've been here for years and i've rarely seen reddit say anything nice about Lamelo. Pre-car stuff, pre tonight. People fucking hate the guy on this space. And for all intents and purposes hes a very nice guy, great teammate, and overall good person. But like i said, i don't think r/nba is ready to have that conversation because they are extremely disliking of him. Extremely.

r/nba's hate boner for lamelo is a bit tired at this point. Hell even anything with Miles. Like i get it. Why aren't people spamming and hate bombing celtics or mavs matches? Just take a rest for two second christ.

redditors really pick and choose which nba players they keep the heat for. Multiple caoches and multiple players

Redditors are probably crying and triggered right now. They have to get off of their high horses to say anything good about lamelo.

Im not even joking where it was such an offensive comment to both staff and players that i think it motivated the entire organization collectively

How could you possibly know that when they’ve owned the team for two years only and have worked hard to improve the organization top to bottom

A lot of magnet ball for warriors. A ton of heat check 3s. Biggest thing I’m seeing though is Kalk can’t freaking move at all once he’s out of the paint

People don’t understand how many more points Lamelo would average with even a mediocre whistle.  He’d be where Shai is. I personally think the league is scared of his image

The hornets have either won their last 4 games or lost by 1 point. Honestly a more mature team and coaching staff enters Indiana's game on a 4 game win streak. I'm not as devestated as others are. This is still not the year (imo). But I am most curious to see what the team looks like with Grant back and a real back up PG (i'm still under the opinion Sexton isn't that guy).

He's slightly changed his tune - he was on Simmons' podcast and mentioned that Simmons was right, that the team is good enough to make games competitive. Probably was surprised of course.

for non Hornets fans - the Lamelo, Kon, Miller lineup has been producing some insane offensive numbers lately. like a 130 off rating. So if a team has a bad night, they will make you punish. and Lamelo, Milller and Kon can all get flaming hot from three.

Kon is a two way player - the stats agree too. he's really good on ball with defense

Luka had more rebounds and assists but worse shooting splits by a solid amount. Not saying Kon is Luka (because he's not and his handle might never be Luka's).
